Services and Amenities

Skilled Health Care

Glossary: Skilled Health Care

Skilled Heath Care is for those who need ongoing long-term nursing care or for those who need short-term concentrated rehabilitation while recovering from surgery or an illness. Five Star communities provide the sophisticated medical services and 24-hour supervision needed by residents with serious health challenges.

Typical nursing homes offer a lot of nursing but not much “home”. Five Star provides skilled nursing care on either a long-term or short-term basis, in an environment that contributes to the health and well-being of our seniors. All Five Star skilled nursing facilities offer 24-hour nursing care to address our residents’ many health care needs.

Offering greater comfort and more amenities than a typical nursing home, Five Star communities offer senior rehab services including occupational, speech, and physical therapy. Our highly experienced team will work with you to set specific goals and map out a customized plan to reach your maximum independence.

Memory Care - Alzheimer's / Dementia

Glossary: Alzheimer's & Memory Care

Bridge to Rediscovery is Five Star Senior Living's innovative, award-winning approach to Alzheimer's and dementia care. The program helps those with Alzheimer's and other dementia-related challenges rediscover the joy in everyday life. Bridge to Rediscovery celebrates the spirit within each resident through personalized activities that encourage creativity and self-expression. We work with residents individually, striving for small successes that help create a sense of accomplishment.

Seniors with Alzheimer’s or other cognitive impairments require constant care and vigilance. Five Star’s memory care services emphasize safety and engagement. Our award-winning Bridge to Rediscovery program is a Montessori-based approach to memory care that is specially designed to enhance engagement and quality of life for all of our residents.

Respite Care / Short-term Stays

Glossary: Respite Care / Short-term Stays

Respite Care / Short-term Stays are great for seniors when families travel out of town or simply need a break from the stresses of caregiving. They can also be a good option for those considering senior living and want to "try it out" before making a long-term commitment. Short-term stays allow residents to enjoy housekeeping services, community activities, dining, and all other amenities enjoyed by our permanent residents. In addition to the benefits of physical care, our short-term residents often make friendships that enrich life in a way that only connecting with others can.

For seniors needing temporary care or whose family have to travel or take time for themselves – or for those who want to “test drive” life at one of our senior living communities – Five Star offers short stays. Whether for a week or a few months, seniors enjoy exceptional care, community activities, dining, and housekeeping services – and family members enjoy peace of mind.

Glossary: Lifestyle360

At Five Star Senior Living, we invite residents into our senior living communities not just to live with us, but to thrive with us. It’s been widely publicized that adults are living longer but there is a lot of evidence that we aren’t necessarily living longer in a healthy state. Five Star is working to change that with our Lifestyle360 program - a holistic approach to active community living that focuses on five dimensions of wellness: intellectual, social, physical, emotional, and spiritual.
